Lyrics

ONCE AGAIN

I thought that I could love this man
I thought that he was kinda sweet
It?d been so long since I?d felt this way
With all the odd ones, that I?d meet

He made me feel like someone special
He showered me with loving care
All of the thoughtful things he did for me
When I?d need him, he?d be there

Chorus:
Once Again, I went down the wrong path
Once again, I?d better not look back
What seemed so right, turned out so wrong
Once again, I must be strong

I let myself think he was right
I was thinking of tomorrow
I trusted myself, thought it was time for joy
Now, do I blame myself, for this sorrow?

He used me. I was his little toy
He confused me, made me believe
He abused me. I was a pawn in his game
Now, it?s clear to me. I must leave

Chorus:
Once Again, I went down the wrong path
Once again, I?d better not look back
What seemed so right, turned out so wrong
Once again, I must be strong

Bridge:
I?ve got to go, salvage my pride
I must follow that voice I hear inside
Leave that man, try to heal the pain
I?ve got to go and start over, start over again

Chorus:
Once Again, I went down the wrong path
Once again, I?d better not look back
What seemed so right, turned out so wrong
Once again, I must be strong

Chorus:
Once Again, I went down the wrong path
Once again, I?d better not look back
What seemed so right, turned out so wrong
Once again, I must be strong
